1 minute read

His fans may be pulling for Idris Elba to play the next James Bond, but in the meantime, the Beasts of No Nation star will direct his attention to a matter outside the purview of the MI6: recapturing 14 missing mammals in the city of Zootopia. In Disney’s forthcoming animated feature Zootopia, to be released March 4, Elba lends his voice to Chief Bogo, a Cape buffalo who commands the local police department with a no-nonsense attitude and a proclivity for puns.

In this new clip from the movie, the tough-as-nails chief corrals his department to address the mysterious disappearance of the predators. Along with Elba, Zootopia also features the voices of Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, J.K. Simmons and Shakira.
